Subsetted model output on pressure levels for meteorology-related variables from a LASSO-CACTI WRF simulation

Meteorology-related model output interpolated to pressure levels from a Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) simulation from the Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Symbiotic Simulation and Observation (LASSO) deep-convection scenario for the Cloud, Aerosol, and Complex Terrain Interactions (CACTI) field campaign. The LASSO-CACTI simulations span grid spacings from 7.5 km to 100 m through the use of four nested domains, labeled d1 through d4. The simulations are of convection near the Sierras de Córdoba mountain range, roughly centered on the ARM Mobile Facility. More information can be found at https://www.arm.gov/capabilities/modeling/lasso. This version of the output is a collection of variables subsetted from the raw WRF output to reduce the file overhead for users not needing the full raw dataset. The subset files are in netCDF format with the height-based variables interpolated to pressure levels.

Stable and high voltage and power output of CEA-MFCs internally connected in series (iCiS-MFC)

The voltage output of a single MFC is normally less than 0.8 V, often less than 0.3 V at maximum power output, which greatly limits the application of MFCs. When MFCs are scaled up, however, increasing reactor size has typically resulted in decreased power density. In this study, we developed a novel MFC configuration that contains multiple cloth electrode assemblies in which the MFCs were internally connected in series (iCiS-MFC). The iCiS-MFC, equivalent to 3 CEA-MFCs, produced a high voltage output over 1.8 V and a maximum power density of 3.5 W m -2 using carbon cloth cathodes containing activated carbon as the catalyst. This power density is 6% higher than that reported for a similar smaller CEA-MFC, indicating that power can be maintained during scale-up with a greater than 33-fold increase in total cathode surface area and greater than 20-fold increase in reactor volume. High stability was also demonstrated based on the performance of the iCiS-MFC over a period of one year of operation. The high power and stability is likely due, in part, to a more efficient means of current collection through the internal series connection, which also avoids the use of expensive current collectors. These results clearly demonstrate the great potential of this MFC design for further scaling-up.

Power supply including a nonlinear transmission line that receives a single input pulse and outputs a plurality of pulses

Technologies pertaining to a power supply that includes a nonlinear transmission line are described herein. In an embodiment, a DC power supply comprises a pulsing circuit that receives a DC input and outputs a first plurality of pulses having a first frequency to a nonlinear transmission line. The nonlinear transmission line receives the first plurality of pulses and outputs a second plurality of pulses having a second frequency that is greater than the first frequency. The second plurality of pulses is then received at an amplifier/rectifier circuit that amplifies the second pulses to increase a voltage amplitude of the pulses, and rectifies the pulses to provide a substantially constant DC output.

LINAC Longitudinal Simulation and Measurement of Output Energy

The Linac at Fermilab, one of the oldest accelerators on-site, plays a crucial role in delivering 400 MeV proton beams to other accelerating facilities. The beam traveling through Linac needs to be carefully monitored for better accelerator operation. One of the key factors of efficient Linac operation is its longitudinal stability. The stability can minimize Linac loss and maximize beam current. For this purpose, I examined the beam's longitudinal profile, which is crucial for proper beam transfer between its two sections. After careful monitoring of the beam through Linac, we need to ensure that it leaves with desired parameters. The beam coming out from the Linac is subsequently injected into the Booster, a synchrotron that relies on dipole magnets to bend the beam at injection. If the output energy of the beam deviates from the expected value, the beam will bend at an incorrect radius, leading to potential beam loss. Therefore, precise regulation of the output energy is critical for the efficient operation of the accelerator. To address this, I have conducted a thorough examination of the Linac longitudinal simulations and data from Beam Position Monitors (BPMs). My objective is to measure and stabilize the output energy and verify its correspondence with the predicted simulation results. All these analyses are important for efficient operation of the accelerator.

Light output quenching in response to deuterium-ions and alpha particles and pulse shape discrimination in deuterated trans-stilbene

We characterized the light output response of a new 140 cm 3 stilbene-d 12 crystal up to 14.1 MeV neutron energies using a coincidence neutron scattering system. We also characterized its light output response to alpha particles in the 5 to 6 MeV energy range. The excellent PSD capability of the stilbene-d 12 detector allowed us to select light pulses produced by particles of increasing ionization density, namely electrons, protons, deuterium-ions, and alpha particles. The measured fast decay component of the light pulses is increasingly quenched as the ionization density of the particle in the crystal increases. Consistently with this finding, the Birks’ quenching parameter of alpha particles is approximately 8.5 times larger compared to the quenching of deuterium ions, produced by neutron scattering interactions. The reported experimental characterization will allow high-fidelity modeling of the detector enabling its application for fast-neutron detection and spectroscopy in nuclear physics, radiation protection, nuclear security, and non-proliferation.

Comprehensive Comparative Analysis: VSI-based vs. CSI-based Motor Drive Systems with Sinusoidal Output Voltage

The emergence of wide-bandgap (WBG) power devices opens opportunities for current source inverters (CSIs) to provide a promising alternative drive configuration for motor drive applications. The sinusoidal output voltage of CSI offers significant advantages for numerous motor drive applications, including reducing the risks associated with motor terminal overvoltages and bearing discharge currents. This paper compares the performance of CSIs and voltage source inverters (VSIs) with the same performance capabilities. More specifically, sine filters are added to the VSI output terminals to match the CSI performance, and a front-end boost converter is added to the VSI to match the CSI’s voltage-boost capability. The results show that the CSI active components require 48% less volume than the VSI, combined with other performance advantages that make it an appealing candidate for some future motor drive applications.

Output Capacitance Loss of GaN HEMTs in Steady-State Switching

The output capacitance (C OSS ) loss, a loss produced when the device’s output capacitor is charged and discharged, has become a concern for GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) in high-frequency applications. This work presents a new, easy-to-implement method for the C OSS loss characterization based on the unclamped inductive switching (UIS) setup. As compared to prior approaches, this method involves the device’s ON-state conduction and could measure the C OSS loss in a single pulse and the steady-state switching. The C OSS loss of three types of mainstream commercial GaN HEMTs is characterized, which exhibit some common dependencies including a non-monotonic relation with the dv/dt (or resonance frequency), a linear relation with the ON-state current, a power-law relation with the peak blocking voltage, and little temperature dependence. In addition, their C OSS losses all show minimal distinctions in a single pulse and the steady-state switching, despite the increased on-resistance in the steady-state switching. Furthermore, this suggests that the traps accounting for the C OSS loss possess different de-trapping time constants as compared to the traps governing the dynamic on-resistance. Finally, a unified model is established to describe the C OSS loss of all three types of GaN HEMTs. These results provide important references for the high-frequency application of GaN HEMTs and new insights into the physical origin of their C OSS loss.1
